Much has changed since our current story of Santa Claus delivering presents was written.
"How Clydesdales Saved Christmas", incorporates modern themes into the classic fable.
The plot incorporates the following novel elements:
Santa Claus becomes a more modern figure. He worries about climate change affecting his deliveries. He turns to Mrs Claus for help and receives it in full measure. Mrs Claus is portrayed as a key figure, an imaginative problem solver and powerful confidante to Santa.
Santa's climate change delivery worries prove to be misdirected- another problem unexpectedly arises.
Reindeer are shown to be vulnerable and are credibly sidelined when they are struck by Reindeer Covid.
A new heroic participant in this updated mythology is a creature already widely loved and revered, the Iconic Clydesdale horse. Familiar to tens of millions of Americans via portrayal as most noble team players every year at Super Bowl time, a bit of Christmas magic transforms them to Santa's newest and most powerful helpers.
This book was inspired by actual events as captured in the enclosed photo wherein Santa visits a team of Clydesdales in Sacramento CA
